This document discusses scaling a development team from a startup to a larger company. It outlines Trademob's growth from 9 employees to 60 employees in under a year. Scaling people is difficult as communication needs grow exponentially with team size. While hierarchies aim to address this, they reduce information sharing and buy-in. The document recommends keeping teams flat and communication open. It provides tips for scaling including standups, all-hands meetings, mentoring, flexteams, and a focus on hiring the right people and building trust. The role of the leader will also change from coding to more management as the company grows.
